Oh, no - drove a 928 S4 today (NAC)

[Jeryd]

The same thing happened to me...

I used to have a 4kq and I test drove a 944.....  BIG difference...!  So I
ended up selling the 4kq and getting 944.

Now, a year later the Porsche is died and I am in the market for another
quattro (80 or 90 quattro) for my daily driver....

Later!
